Scouting report:
Hay called this team unlike any other he has seen so far and is predicting a far better season than last year's campaign. The team is stacked with talent at running back and defensive back, and Hay said Clark “looks great” at quarterback. The only thing that could stifle Mar Vista's rise is a lack of overall depth. If the team can stay healthy, it could be a playoff year.

Scouting report:
When San Ysidro dropped its junior varsity team last year because of a lack of numbers, it was a blow to the development of the football program. But those players who moved up to varsity gained valuable experience. The school plans to have a junior varsity team this season but no freshman squad, moving the ninth-graders up to JV. Pugh calls this year's varsity group a hard-working bunch. Johnson returns as the most experienced running back in a stable of about four or five who could see work in a committee system. Johnson is a smaller back (5-6, 145) but shifty and elusive. Herrera (6-0, 260) and Bastien (5-11, 240) bring size to the line.

Scouting report:
Esposito called the team's greatest weakness its greatest strength — youth. “It could help us in the future,” he said. There isn't much returning from last season. Esposito expects the team to take some licks but hopes it will help fortify the program for the future. Brown and Padilla will be the leaders on defense. Weston, a good athlete, will run the offense.
